If your list of New Year’s Resolutions includes getting organized, saving money, cooking more meals at home, and/or saving time, then finding, clipping, and using more coupons might be on your mind! Although many coupons exist on our smart phones, paper coupons still abound and can quickly become untidy without a system to corral them. While sophisticated coupon binders have been made famous by television shows and Pinterest, they may be a bit much for the casual couponer who simply needs these money-saving deals at his or her fingertips. Here are 16 creative coupon DIY organizers, ideal for sorting and storing a handful of your most needed coupons in pretty and functional ways.
